    Due and upgrade with Orange on 28th March. I'm after the iphone, I'm on Dolphin at the minute. What should I expect to be offered? is the £89 charge standard?
    I intend to use internet on it loads so will deffo be after unlimited internet.

    Thanks in advance

    You'll probably get !!!!!! all on the iPhone from Orange as they suck.
    Orange's unlimited internet isn't unlimited, but you'd still struggle to hit the data allowance

    Got offered a refurb 3G 16GB for £28pm 18 month contract yesterday with free handset , 300 free mins and unlimited texts. Accepted it but 2 days earlier got offered the same deal and 600 mins. Hey do. Don't mind as only a light user

    That's a good deal. Was it with O2? With the refurb iPhones are they Apple Refurbed, (IE brand new), or customer returns (usually marked) and do you still get the original iPhone box with all accessories or is it like the refurb iPods, where you just get it in a plain box?

    Anyone had any decent deals with Vodafone for the iPhone, do they do refurbed ones?

    Cheers!

    I was talking to a vodafone worker the other day (luckily their call centre is right next to one of my companies offices), they haven't had the iphone long enough to really do refurbs apparently, all customers who have gotten them, genuinely wanted them... apparently.. not to say it wont happen though!

    All refurbs from o2 have a standard 1 year apple warranty, which you can book into a genius bar at an apple store and they can fix it.

    Hi GH

    Did they tell you they were in stock yesterday?

    I didnt know they would do a deal without them being in stock. They have never offered to set me anything up before they have come in.

    Thanks
    Lou

    Sorry if I didn't make it clear - at the time I was speaking to O2 (March 2nd) the 3G 16GB was in stock which is why I took the deal. They said it could be delivered today but I chose tomorrow.

    Hi sorry i deleted that part of my post as was unsure wheather i could say that, (i'm very new to all this) but thankyou I didn't know that, wish I had known sooner then I wouldn't be getting all these problems now.
  • update - no refurbs 3gs in stock.

    didnt ask about 3g ones but looks like they do anyway.

    might stump for the 3g as Im getting very impatient!!!!! haha

    At the rate this is going at for you two, you would be better waiting until summer to see if there's a shiny iPhone 4G.
